cleaning

Hello all. I have a qusetion regarding cleaning run. I have read that when you do a leaning run with vinigar
the pipes shine like new. This does not happen in my case and I do follow the instruction as posted in the cleaning topic.
So I guess what I am asking is it just talk or I do not follow Instructions well. Thanks for any input.

I haven't seen mine get as clean as a new penny. But I can tell its cleaner after a vinegar run. Getting it shiny isn't really needed. Just getting the oils and flux type stuff out is what you want.

Thank you I was thinking I had it wrong.

I normally run a 4 to 1 water vinegar mixture. Some run 1 to 1 .

I have done 4 to 1 and even tried strait vinigar but it does not come out shiny it is clean but not shiny. Right now I am doing grappa @ 65% Then I am going to clean and start a rum wash.

Starts out at 65 in the end it shoud be about 50 to 55
